2019 Pavillon du Glana Saint Julien

Hands down, one of the best QPR Bordeauxs I have ever had.  55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot sitting right across the road from Ducru-Beaucaillou. Expressive in ways that are unparalleled for a village wine: layer upon layer of expressive cacao and dark fruit that is pure and fine; making one feel like a Ugandan gorilla shaking fresh morning berries off the trees with Dian Fossey yelling in the background "w'ere gonna make something great out of this."
